Chapter 234: Chapter 233 Direct Assault on the Hideout

Upon seeing Lu Zixun deploy the Cold Ice Barrier, Mingfei halted the circulation of her Blood Energy.

She circled around Lu Zixun, furrowing her brows slightly.

With her right hand, Mingfei gathered a mass of Blood Energy and violently slapped it against the ice formed by the Cold Ice Barrier.

At the same time, Lu Zixun’s heart leapt into his throat, fearing that Mingfei’s palm could shatter the ice block with a single hit.

Fortunately, when the Blood Energy struck the Cold Ice Barrier, just as it was about to penetrate and invade the inside of the ice block by transforming into blood, it was frozen into clots by the piercing cold.

Relieved at heart, Lu Zixun watched Mingfei with a newfound fearlessness through the ice block.

If his guess was correct, this Mingfei’s real form was the Hidden Blood Worm.

Now, having encountered various members of the Insect Clan, a deep doubt suddenly arose in Lu Zixun’s mind, wondering why these insects all preferred to take on human forms.

"Clang!"

The sound of a sword piercing the air came thundering down, aimed ruthlessly at Mingfei.

Mingfei’s face creased into a frown, evidently not expecting someone to come to the rooftop.

Raising her hand, she slapped away the Longsword with a wave of Blood Energy and instinctively took a step back.

"Defensive Formation, activate."

Speeding talismans, glowing with the command of Wang Duli’s voice, protected Lu Zixun within the Cold Ice Barrier.

At this moment, Mingfei’s expression turned exceedingly ugly.

No wonder the flying sword didn’t seem so formidable at first; its wielder apparently had no intention to kill her but instead to force her back.

"Sigh."

Seeing that the two had finally arrived, Lu Zixun heaved a breath of relief, released the Cold Ice Barrier, and pointed his claw at Mingfei, "She should be the Hidden Blood Worm. Her abilities are somewhat deceitful."

Hearing this, Xiong Kang nodded.

Holding his sword and staring at Mingfei, his eyes narrowed as Spiritual Energy poured out, seven Flying Swords shot out of the Sword Box.

Like meteor streaks across the sky, they relentlessly assailed Mingfei.

The continuous barrage forced the besieged Mingfei to retreat step by step, and upon discovering that Xiong Kang was still in relentless pursuit, a vicious glint flashed in her eyes.

"Blood Burst!"

She shouted, and the surrounding water towers exploded.

What was stored in those towers wasn’t water, but crimson liquid.

The instant the water towers burst, the air filled with an intense and pungent scent of blood.

"Block."

At that moment, Wang Duli calmly took out a talisman, slapped it onto the ground, and, as if there was an invisible air wall, a void was formed through the blood-drenched rooftop.

"Sword One, Puncture."

With a single-handed sword technique, the seven flying swords sped up by a third, leaving Lu Zixun only able to catch glimpses of their shadows.

"Thunk."

The sound of bodies being pierced rang out, the Flying Swords penetrated Mingfei’s body, leaving several bloody holes.

Mingfei, who had not expected Xiong Kang to be so formidable, tried to shatter the Longswords inside her with Blood Energy, only to find it impossible.

After throwing a fierce glance at Xiong Kang, Mingfei transformed into a pool of blood mist, fleeing towards the lower levels of Yangming Mall.

Without a physical form, the Flying Swords naturally clinked and clattered, dropping one after another to the ground.

"Return."

After retrieving his flying sword, Xiong Kang began to check Lu Zixun’s injuries, "Bear with it a bit."

"?"

Before Lu Zixun could ask what Xiong Kang meant, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, "Hiss!"

With one hand, Xiong Kang steadied Lu Zixun’s body and with a strong pull, removed the blood-colored spear from inside him.

He then took out a bottle filled with green liquid and poured it over Lu Zixun’s wound.

The excruciating pain vanished, replaced by a gentle sensation in his abdomen that felt extremely comfortable.

"Young friend,"

Shaking his head, he looked at Lu Zixun in Xiong Kang’s arms, "You were a bit too hasty. If you had come with us, that Hidden Blood Worm would have been doomed."

"It’s my fault; it’s my fault."

After promptly admitting his mistake, Lu Zixun explained, "I was thinking that these support-type members of the Insect Clan should not have much fighting power."

Upon hearing this, Wang Duli nodded in understanding and organized his thoughts before speaking, "That’s mostly correct, but no creature that has reached the Queen-level is simple."

"Just like the Blood Burst technique used by that Hidden Blood Worm just now; ordinary members of the Insect Clan cannot master such an ability."

"That Hidden Blood Worm was likely stalling for time."

Sighing, Xiong Kang, cradling Lu Zixun, followed behind Wang Duli, "The Channel Worm must have taken the opportunity to escape. It seems we must dig up the floor of the first level of Yangming Mall."

Mingfei could have escaped through the blood mist from the start, but she chose not to.

Only after enduring Xiong Kang’s seven sword blows did she use it, undoubtedly to buy time for the Channel Worm to escape.

With the Insect Clan now on alert, they would naturally be more cautious.

To prevent Yangming Mall from being constantly at risk of tunneling insect invasion, Xiong Kang had no choice but to come up with this desperate plan.

After seriously considering Xiong Kang’s suggestion, the silent Wang Duli, having arrived at the first-floor mall, suddenly had a revelation upon looking at the surrounding load-bearing columns.

"If they wanted to kill the ordinary people who entered Yangming Mall..."

Pausing, Wang Duli lifted his hand and pointed to a load-bearing column, "The fastest way would be to have the Channel Worm break the columns, but the Insect Clan hasn’t done this."

Lu Zixun, listening closely to Wang Duli’s words, immediately asked, "Do they want live people?"

"Other than that, I can’t think of any other reason for the Insect Clan."

Coldness flickered in his eyes as Wang Duli continued, "With this assumption, we can rule out many areas. It seems there’s something else we need to ask Xiao Jiu about."

Looking around the areas supported by the load-bearing columns, Lu Zixun quickly identified three small blocks.

With no columns there, these were undoubtedly the best spots for digging tunnels.

"Elder Wang, if you have any questions, I can ask Ninth Brother right now."

Upon hearing this, Xiong Kang hurriedly spoke.

"The question is simple. It’s about where Xiao Jiu last saw Wang Duli."

Wang Duli’s eyes sparkled for a moment as he explained, "After all, the growth of tunneling insects depends on the Blood Energy of King-level creatures. I suppose the only King-level creature in Lingchuan City is Tan Ye."

"I understand now."

With sudden realization, Xiong Kang gently placed Lu Zixun on the ground and walked aside to use his phone.

Feeling his wound healing rapidly, Lu Zixun couldn’t help but lift his leg and scratch it.

He then looked at Wang Duli and said, "Given the current situation in Yangming Mall, the Channel Worm probably has already dug the tunnel. Even if we kill the Channel Worm, if the tunnel remains for a long time, what should we do?"

"That’s simple."

With a smile, Wang Duli voiced a plan that was astonishingly bold, "We can follow the tunnel straight to the tunneling insect and eliminate the root of the problem!"
